You’ve Got (More) Mail

Letters are among the most significant memorial a person can leave behind them. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Boardwalk and Young's Pier, Atlantic City NJ - 1908

I’ve received many emails throughout the year asking when I was going to hold another postcard exchange. The time has arrived! I am hoping this year’s will be even more successful than last year’s. For those of you that have children/grandchildren this is a great project to get involved in.

Old Mill, Fairton NJ - Early 1900's

Link in to receive a postcard from me; then in return, mail one back. Visit others in the link party to expand your postcard collection. Mailing addresses will be shared via email between the participating parties. No one should forward any one else’s address. Please mention the exchange on your blog with a link back so we can get as many people participating as possible! If you don’t have a blog but would like to participate, leave a comment with your email address.

Mailed From Asbury Park NJ - 1908

Tell me something special about your home state, county or area of interest and I will do the same. Your mailbox will soon have sweet little snapshots of life from across the country and beyond!

This is the perfect opportunity for me to share a photo of the exact spot at the end of my street that the “Harry postcard” came from (I think I actually did manage to snap a pic during my bloggy sabbatical). It’s amazing to me how little it’s changed!

P.S. Read your comment about the rug. My PB runner literally started “shedding” the day we put it down, so if yours has held it together this long (this long being more than 24 hours!) I think you’re in good shape.

Oh my friend! The Sweet Boy will be ever so excited as will his mother. You know how much I dearly enjoyed this event last year and I am ever so happy to participate again this year.
I am thinking that the people I exchange with may want to wait until next month when I leave for France. A postcard from France is so much more exciting that Arizona. 🙂

What a fun idea!!! I used to collect postcards, but I wasn’t displaying them, so I quit buying. I can’t commit b.c I can barely remember to get groceries lately, but I wanted to tell you what a fun idea I think this is. 🙂

I am NOT going to miss this party this year!
You will get my post card from South Carolina.
I will have to go downtown to Mast general and find some cool cards!
I am putting your button on my sidebar, so I don’t forget–because I’m pitiful and if it’s out of sight, unfortunately, it’s out of my mind—ugh.
Will start planning a post…
This will be fun!!
HUGS,

I am definitely, completely, committed. I am so excited to be participating this year and thank you Deborah for remembering & reminding me. So fun! Now if I can just figure out where the button goes in my sidebar…

I am so excited about this exchange. I actually have 2 blogs. One is for ideas regarding homeschooling and being a military wife (Li’l Jam Hands~ Tattered Apron Strings). The other is my “artsy”/ creative site Suzi’s Doodles (http://suzi-doodles.blogspot.com/). I am putting your button on both (but linky-ed only Li’l Jam Hands).
God Bless, Suzi and the Crew
